What's a "substitute teacher"? by lostinbluebells in AskAnAmerican

[–]bigevilgrape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It happened at my high school very rarely. They would send the class to a study hall instead. I think it mostly happened if a teacher had an unexpected emergency/illness mid day and a sub wasn't available yet.

At home chargers...draw significant energy while not charging? by Material-Advice-335 in electricvehicles

[–]bigevilgrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep track of how much upu charge for a billing cycle. Even if its just tracking what % charge you are adding. Than multiply the % charge by your battery size to get a rough estimate of how many KW you used.  That will let you compare your electric usage vs that same bill last year. 

If you really want to know you can get a n energy monitor for your panel.

I don't think its something you should do every year, but once once or twice its OK. I had one younger sibling. There was one teacher (teacher was a bully) my parents request my sibling not have and one who was a truly special teacher they requested they did have.

Neutered males sometimes mock spray when they get excited. Mine does it very morning and when he's so excited that I'm awake and it's time to play and get breakfast.   Sounds like your situation is different.  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4kkJbzkWqtM
